  • U.S. President Donald Trump is considering a partnership between the U.S. government and major artificial intelligence companies.
  • Trump plans to meet with AI leaders at the White House next week to discuss the potential collaboration.
  • The idea, reportedly promoted by OpenAI's Sam Altman, involves companies voluntarily giving the state shares that could yield dividends.

President Donald Trump is exploring an unprecedented partnership between the U.S. government and leading artificial intelligence firms. He announced plans for a White House meeting with top AI executives, potentially next week, to discuss this novel collaboration.

"There is something very interesting in this, it is almost a partnership with the American people, and we are looking at it," Trump told reporters during a flight. This initiative, according to the news site NOTUS, stems from discussions between Trump administration officials and major tech companies.

The core of the proposal, reportedly championed by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, involves companies voluntarily ceding shares to the state. This arrangement could allow the government to benefit from dividends generated by these shares, creating a new model of public-private engagement in a critical technological sector.

There is something very interesting in this, it is almost a partnership with the American people, and we are looking at it.
